Mistake Continuity: At the front door of Sao Feng's, after Elizabeth removes her hat, it cuts to the removal of her decorative vest (totally skipping her jacket), revealing her weapons' holster harness underneath, and she then tosses her vest at Sao Feng's man. Problem is the man doesn't catch her vest, he actually catches her empty weapons' holster harness. But, in the next few shots she's still wearing that holster harness, as she removes her lovely weapons.

Mistake Continuity: When Elizabeth is giving her speech about the crew of the Pearl, her arm is either straight or bent depending on the angle.

Mistake Continuity: Just before Pintel and Ragetti are about to fire Jack, the monkey, out of a cannon, the monkey and barrel point out of a partially destroyed gun port, with its hinged port lid missing. Once Ragetti lights it, in the close-up just as Jack blazes out, the frame of the gun port is perfectly intact, as is its hinged port lid above it.

Mistake Continuity: On the small sand spit, when Jack, Elizabeth and Barbossa meet with Will, Beckett, and Davy Jones, the leather cuff Jack wears on his right hand actually disappears and reappears twice during the meeting.

Mistake Continuity: The cord necklace Will wears, which has several things dangling from it - particularly a distinctive white shell, flips round the opposite way between shots within a scene, several times during the film. For example, before and after the maelstrom, including the ceremony Barbossa performs.

Mistake Continuity: When Beckett boards the Dutchman and speaks to Jones, he has very noticeable dark facial stubble, but bizarrely, in his next close-up he is actually clean shaven, his wig curl has shrunk and his eyebrow hair is neater.

Mistake Revealing: After the military attack Sao Feng’s residence, when Elizabeth is seen fighting amid the melee the black spandex-like shorts are visible under her robe as she kicks up.

Mistake Continuity: During the mass hanging, in the close-up of the boy's fingers fiddling with the coin he has clean hands and long untrimmed nails, but in the wideshot the boy's hands are filthy and his fingernails are bitten short.

Mistake Continuity: The worn areas of Jack’s leather hat drastically changes throughout the film. Additionally, the hat has a threaded ‘X’ on both its right and left side. In numerous close-ups extra thread holes are visible in different areas near each of these Xs; such as in the Locker, when Jack lies on the ground as the Pearl passes by and later, on the little island, before Jack switches places with Will. In other shots those extra holes are gone, such as when Jack sets sail for the Fountain of Youth. The actual sizes of the Xs also change.

Mistake Continuity: When Will walks toward the shoreline, Elizabeth runs to join him and both leave tracks in the sand. When Elizabeth is alone, as the Dutchman disappears, the trail in the sand distinctly differs - not do to water or wind.

Mistake Continuity: After Will escapes the brig aboard the Pearl, as he stands on deck with Jack, the rope wound round the dead soldier lying atop the barrel differs depending on camera angle.

Mistake Continuity: When Barbossa and Elizabeth go to meet Sao Feng, she is asked to get rid of all her weapons. When she places the homemade grenade on the table, it gets placed on the edge of a red cloth where you can see the table at the end of the cloth, yet when she places her final weapon, the red cloth is now almost completely covering the table.

Mistake Continuity: When Barbossa is talking to Calypso on the Black Pearl, right after he says, "Masters Pintel and Ragetti, take this fishwife to the brig," there is a shot of Pintel and Ragetti leading her down the deck's steps. The Black Pearl is pitching strongly up and down. In the next shot, where Barbossa looks at and flexes his hand, the ship is barely pitching at all.

Mistake Continuity: When Jack begins to speak to Captain Teague, Teague’s left hand is under the guitar frets, but in the shot facing Jack that hand rests atop the guitar, then when Teague says, “It’s not just about living forever, Jackie,” his left hand is under the frets again.

Mistake Continuity: Aboard the Dutchman, when Jones's crew shout, "The Admiral's dead," Norrington's black scabbard lies conspicuously at his right side, but when he stabs Jones the scabbard is gone.

Mistake Continuity: When Will is at Sao Feng's, the rope binding his wrists differs depending on camera angle.

Mistake Continuity: Aboard the Dutchman, when the shot pans towards Jones as he plays the organ, the silver musical box’s point faces left, but in the next close-up it faces right.

Mistake Continuity: The size of Beckett's wig curls change between consecutive shots of different angles, such as when he boards the Dutchman and speaks to Jones.

Mistake Revealing: The outline of Pintel’s yellow contacts are obvious in some of his close-ups, depending on his facial expressions, such as when he speaks of the green light as they sail towards the Locker.

Mistake Continuity: When Jack is on the Black Pearl in Davy Jones' Locker, the are scratches on his right hand. But a few minutes later when Barbossa leads the crew to Jack's rescue, the scratches are gone.
